My shed is action packed with parts. No links or brake lines though. Well I have stock rear links.
Jae what is it that I bent? Tie rod? Track bar? Wasn't sure what you just replaced with RK? That's what I bent right?

Shit I forgot about steering stabilizer. Something else to fix. Thanks.

Btw we went night wheeling on trails in the mountains here tonight. Narrow muddy and had to winch up a hill. Had a blast!

and of course, my wife attempted to go offroading with her scion, and destroyed her tires, so we are getting her some 17's and some nice new rubbers. for some reason when I tried to add on my tires and wheels as well, she got really upset. I just don't get women.

my wife keeps threatening to buy me an orange grill, so I'm sure one day it'll get replaced. besides, it's nice to have a mirror handy when working on the jeep

next bit of chrome to go will prolly be the fuel cover and the light guards.
